Delight and reflect in the uplifting sounds of the Baroque soprano voice, newly-restored St. Michael pipe organ and soaring trumpet lines, in the intimate acoustics of St. Michael and All Angels Church—the Festival’s “small church” home since the very beginning of the annual series in 1981. John Thiessen (trumpet) and St. Michael’s music director and international rising star Lukas Hasler (organ), with a guest appearance by Jennifer Ellis Kampani (soprano), in favorites by Bach, Handel, Scarlatti, Torelli and Vivaldi.
